Poll: Support for Obama, immigration and ObamaCare all tumble
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 08/01/2014 | John Merline

President Obama's approval rating dropped to his lowest levels as the public hammers him on his handling of each of the major crises facing the country, according to the latest IBD/TIPP poll, released on Friday.

The survey, taken the last week of July, found that only 38% of the public approves of the job Obama is doing as president, while 53% disapprove.

That's a 10-point negative swing in just the past month.

Time to push home immigration against the dems in every single congressional and senate and governor election. Hammer them.

If we could get 70 conservatives in the senate, including Graham, McCain and McConnell, and get the house to impeach, we might get 67 to vote to convict him.

.....push immigration against dems in every congressional, senate and governor election. Hammer them......

Dummycrats are still smarting over the whomping they got at Obamacare townhalls. Seems Dummycrats aren't interested in facing their constituents over immigration.

2014 August Recess Town Hall Map lists 139 Republicans holding town hall meetings and 47 Democrats. ==============================================

Mmmmmmm......I can't wait to hear Dummycrats explain
to voters why they oppose the Republican border plan.

READY SET GO, PATRIOTS every townhall forum,
every blog, Facebook page, twitter, needs to focus on this.

Support only matters in representative republics incorporating democratic voting.

Support, or lack of it, are meaningless in a country run by a unconstitutional despot, who rules with a pen and a phone.

The polls could show 0% approval and 100% support to impeach and then arrest Oabma - nothing would be done...this is such a joke....he came to divide and weaken - and in that, he has succeeded...

Pray America wakes up

An 'unconstitutional despot, who rules with a pen and a phone' but is backed up by the largest, best trained and best armed army of bureaucrats in the history of this hemisphere. Just start with the IRS and move forward. IRS, TSA, DEA, ATF, HHS and on and on and on. I am afraid for the Republic.
Of the current population of 300+million, I doubt there are more than a few million that have read and understand our Constitution. The rest will cave like a cheap suit to their charismatic Benevolent Dictator and his ruling party.

The GOP needs to drive home the point, especially for black Americans, that by pursuing open borders policies the Democrats ensure low wages, high unemployment, a permanent underclass all for the sole reason of perpetuating their corrupt power. In the case of amnesty the New Times favorite subtitle to any article dealing with bad economic news - “Blacks and Women Hurt Most - is accurate.

There will be no border security until there is a real border fence.

Anything else is smoke and mirrors, meant to fail.

The Republicans in Congress need to start publicizing the fact that welfare money is a finite commodity and if you let in several million illegals and give them welfare, the welfare payments to existing recipients will be cut in half

What the HOR passed is shocking. It's what a vast majority of real people both political parties want. Now the Pres and US Senate have to explain why they're not in DC enacting this bill.

People aren't as stupid as assumed, not when their lives and environment are being threatened. Bringing in hordes from Central America, putting them in overcrowded classrooms, while there's a threat of global pandemic is something a majority are threatened by and understand.

Maybe the RINOs will finally get it, that people are fed up with their DC games.

CHICAGO

Dart: Up to 9,000 inmates signed up for Obamacare to help with mental health treatment

Cook County Sheriff Tom DartDart said the Cook County Jail is now the largest mental health provider in the state and perhaps the largest in the country. (Abel Uribe, Chicago Tribune)

By Rick Pearson, Clout Street
Laws and LegislationAffordable Care Act (Obamacare)

Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, attempting to cope with what he says is a growing mental health crisis among inmates at the county jail, said up to 9,000 people who have been incarcerated have signed up for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act in an attempt to get the care they need.

“Systemically, over the course of decades, we’ve sort of carved back all the mental health services to the point where there is this question, we’ve carved it back to next to nothing,” Dart said on “The Sunday Spin” on WGN AM-720.

The sheriff said that the process of closing mental health institutions under the goal of putting the mentally ill into community-based treatment has led to 3,000 of the jail’s 10,000 inmates requiring treatment. As a result, he said, costs have increased and jail staff has undergone greater training.

I hope you are right. I see the sheeple not caring much, especially all the takers and dead voters.

BUT it is great to see people protesting having the illegals in their cities. THAT threat might be enough to wake up some of them.
